SummaryRow and Hyperformula

[haraleib]

I have noticed that when using columnSummary, there is no result calculated in the cell which should calculate some result for a column with formulas.

Do I miss something here if I work with Hyperformula?
As a workaround I could skip the Handsontable columnSummary and provide my own summary filled with formulas which calculate the sum of the column.

The seetings of interest for the hot and hf instances (for the last column there should be a sum calculated)

Hi @haraleib

the SummaryRow in not a method name in Handsontable nor HyperFormula. Do you mean the columnSummary (https://handsontable.com/docs/9.0.0/demo-summary-calculations.html)? If you could share a demo that would definitely help me to solve the case.

[haraleib]

My bad. I have updated the title and description and changed it to columnSummary.

Here the jsfiddle example:

The summary calculations are not formulas, they won't appear in the formula stack.

And there is a difference between the demo (calculates properly and returns hot.getData() as it should) and the images where the value in the last row is not calculated. Do you mean that previously in your code you have also used the summaryRow and replacing it with columnSummary fixed the result?

[haraleib]

The summary calculations are not formulas, they won't appear in the formula stack.

Yes, I thought so, but I guess I can achieve the same result without the columnSummary configuration, if I provide a normal row instaed of the columnSummary row which calculates the result with formulas if it turns out that it is a bug.

I wanted to share some data of interest for you with the image I provided.
In my code I also use columnSummary. The summaryRow I used here in this discussion was a typo.

Nevertheless, in the jsfiddle example I provided the result is not calculated for the first column (which consists of formulas). Do I make something wrong here?

[AMBudnik]

Sorry @haraleib I did not see that.

The Formulas and columnSummary collaboration is not yet supported in the Handsontable v9.0.0.

Here https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable/projects/2 is a full list of changes made for the plugin and in the Rejected/On hold column (where we also have columnSummary) we listed all the topics that had to be postponed. We will provide more changes and updates in the future.

Ok, so everything is clear for me. Thank you :)

You're welcome 👋

If you'd have any questions feel free to ask.
HyperFormula is still a fresh thing, and we may miss some info in the docs or examples, so all the feedback is priceless.

Hello,

i just want to ask you if this issue/problem is still on your roadmap?

We have the same problem with one of our users who also wants to calculate a sum for fields that are calculated from a formula.
Would be nice if you could give me an update about the status.

Thanks!

Thank you a lot for your effort. Do you have an approximate implementation date or time frame?
